"The
fleeting hour of life of those who love the hills is quickly spent, but the
hills are eternal. Always there will be the lonely ridge, the dancing beck, the
silent forest; always there will be the exhilaration of the summits. These are
for the seeking, and those who seek and find while there is yet time, will be
blessed both in mind and body."
Yes, it's the man himself,
Alfred Wainwright

I will exchange a city for a
sunset
|
The tramp of legions for a
wind's wild cry
|
And all the braggard thrusts
of steel triumphant
|
For one far summit blue against
the sky

It
Was Upon
It was
upon a July evening,
|
At a
stile I stood looking along a path
|
Over
the country by a second Spring
|
Drenched
pefect green again. 'The lattermath
|
Will be
a fine one.' So the stranger said,
|
A
wandering man. Albeit I stood at rest
|
Flushed
with desire I was. The earth out-spread
|
Like
meadows of the future I possessed.
|
And as
an unaccomplished prophecy
|
Of a
score years, when these fields are by me
|
Never
to be recrossed, now I recall,
|
This
July eve, and question wondering
|
What of
the lattermath to this hoar Spring?

On
the Go
This
is a piece of e-mail I received on behalf of Stafford Ramblers. I was gobsmacked;
if I'd had it at the start of April, I'd have sworn it was an April Fool's
prank. Do they have September Fools in the States?
I thought you would like
to share our product information with the female
members of your club, the Stafford Rambling Group.
OnTheGo is a revolutionary women's stand-up accessory that allows women to
relieve themselves while standing. It is made of FDA-approved
material, is
hygienic, and reusable.
OnTheGo is great for boating, camping, hiking, or any other outdoor
activity
where toilets are few and far between. No longer do women have to
get nearly
undressed and assume an undignified position, fearing flora, fauna or
discovery.
OnTheGo is easy to use, compact enough to carry in a pocket, and tucks
easily
into a purse or backpack.
Not without humor, OnTheGo brings new meaning to stand-up comedy, stand-up
relief, and stand by your man--and now you can leave the seat up.
To order send a check or money order for $12.95 to OnTheGo, 316 21st
Avenue
NE, St. Petersburg, FL 33704 or to use a cretit card or fins out
